Fresh from a cruise on the continent's main river, Lin was dragged by Katie to Lanelli in Carmarthenshire, where he attended a charity dinner organised by the Welsh Air Rescue Team, and has become one of the few major individual donors to the Welsh Air Rescue Team with nearly £25,000 a year for nearly three years.

In Britain, air ambulances are not part of the NHS. Even if some of the money comes from Westminster, it is still independent: the main source of funding is still donations from the residents of various places – the Blackken Yard, which is not too far from Morriston Hospital, is not too far from Gramogen, but it is not a smooth 20-minute journey. Therefore, Lin Yilong donates a large amount of money to the charity fund of the local air rescue team in Wales every year, in case he is in a hurry when he really needs to use an ambulance - the property can be compensated by the insurance company, and the life of the family is only once.

Because of this, Lin Yilong is invited to almost all charity dinners used for fundraising every year, and at the same time, a group of public figures who are generally invited to help fundraise. The stars of the dinner were a classical music singer, a Paralympic athlete and a kayaker.

Lin Yilong and Katie sat not very far from the guest of honor.

The procedure for this kind of charity dinner is actually similar to that of some conferences, which is to review the achievements and problems of the previous year, and then talk about what we need to continue to develop, how much funding gap we face, so that the invited donors can "have the money to contribute, and the strength to contribute to the construction of a peace with Wales". On the previous two occasions, Lin Yilong excused himself, but only this time, because of the appearance of Lord Hasselton, Lin Yilong changed some of his minds.

Lord Hasselton was born in West Gra Morgan, in a house only a few hundred metres away from where Lin Yilong lived, and served as Secretary of State for Defence in the Cabinet in the 80s, but he was resigned due to his irreconcilable views with other members of the Cabinet on some issues, but he still held his position as a member of parliament until 01. Immediately after his resignation, he was elected Baron for Life by the opposition party during his time as a minister, entered the House of Lords, and remained one of the most influential bigwigs within the Tories. When he first entered the House of Lords, his influence could beat that of Lord Merlot, who was only a little rich.

But now, this respectable gentleman has become an old man in his old age, his once handsome face is covered with age spots, his tall figure is a little curved, and his eyes are no longer clear.

"Your Excellency!" Lin Yilong greeted the lord with a business-style smile.

The old gentleman was a little surprised when he suddenly found himself sitting next to him with an Asian face and a young female companion, and immediately adjusted to normal.

"You are Mr. Lin. Lord Hasselton looked at Lin Yilong with curious eyes, he knew that he would be introduced to some people who were preparing when he attended this reception, but he didn't expect it to be an Asian.

"Yes. Lin replied cautiously, "We met at the completion ceremony of the apartment at the Corinthian Hotel, although we didn't talk. ”

Lord Hasselton's main source of income was the construction company that undertook the renovation of Corinthian Hotel Apartments. Now running the construction company is Lord Hasselton's second son, Lin Yilong has a little intersection with the company manager who is already the same age as Lin's father, not very much.

"That's a shame, but now is the right opportunity. Lord Hasselton said, "I remember it was rumored that Mr. Lin was on good terms with our young man, His Excellency Councillor Fisk. ”

"Reasonable. "But if these personal contacts are excluded, His Excellency Lord Hasselton is one of the few councillors that my girlfriend and I admire in Westminster. ”

"This compliment is flattering. Lin Yilong's praise did not impress the sophisticated former member of the House of Commons, "Mr. Lin is from Xiangjiang?"

"Not really. Lin Yilong replied, "According to the other side of the pond, I should be regarded as a generation at the time of the fall of the Berlin Wall, although it may be the same as the era when some Xiangjiang people came out, but it is still different in essence, I understand, after all, in the House of Lords, there have been several East Asian faces." ”

"Is Mr. Lin considering going to the House of Lords?" asked Lord Hasselton.

"No, if I get there, my title will be "Lord Creek", which is a bit ugly. Anyway, if you have money, you can go to the House of Lords or get a medal without any doubt. Lin Yilong joked about the "Lord of Lords incident" in the House of Lords, which was caught in a scandal a few days ago, "Of course, there is no intention of entering the House of Commons." ”

The title of lifetime title is often related to the property of the recipient, such as Sir Merlot's fief, which is his small village in Oxfordshire, and Lord Hasselton's fief is located in his home in Northampton.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a name. Lord Hasselton said, "Mr. Lin also lives in West Gramorgan?"

It seems that Sigra Morgan brought the two men closer together, and they talked about the park, the Handflan Forest, and the River Tawi that runs through the city, and the "Air Ambulance" charity fund in the heart of the Tavey River Valley.

While Lin Yilong and Lord Hasselton were chatting warmly, Katie sat next to Lin Yilong, waiting to be introduced to the Lord.

"I made a donation here because of my girlfriend's introduction. After chatting with Lord Hasselton for 10 minutes, Lin Yilong unhurriedly introduced Katie to Lord Hasselton, "In fact, I am sitting here thanks to my girlfriend Katie, who persuaded me to donate to this place in order to improve the well-being of the residents of South Wales. ”

Lord Hasselton's aging eyes looked to Lin Yilong's side, and Katie, dressed in a fuchsia evening dress, smiled at him.

"Nice young lady. Lord Hasselton commented, "It's a pity that South Wales is not in the camp of conservatives, otherwise there would be a place for a young lady in the Palace of Westminster next year." ”

"Why do you think so?" Lin Yilong pretended to be curious and asked, "If you are running now, will Katie's age be a minus?"

"Not really. Lord Hasselton replied.
